Beetle Power

Understand The Times is a missions oriented ministry dedicated to spreading the Gospel throughout the world. One of Roger Oakland's many callings is to present indisputable evidence of Creation to audiences who have been taught Darwinian Evolution Theory as the factual origin of life.

Roger presents yet another example of God's creative design in the humble yet powerful Rhinoceros Beetle.

"random chance events" are only half of evolution, you are forgetting natural selection which filters out the bad mutations. and the reason why robots don't "evolve" is because engineers require(with good reason) that a mechine be built exactly to spec, in biological reproduction its quite different. and evolution dosn't talk about the creation of life, that abiogenesis.

Interesting.  Who would have thought a common insect would be so amazing??

Look, my friend, for the last time, I'm tired of this thread which is turning into something that resembles a pseudo-intellectual comparison of phalli rather than an open, heartfelt discussion.  As I stated (implied) before, my purpose here is not to debate with people until I win (or vice versa). If you don't like my views, don't watch my (Roger's) videos. If you want a discussion, PM me anytime. If you want a debate, join a debate team. ... end of thread (for me anyway) ...

quote my words that you think infers such a an immature tactic

[evirus]

spontaneous generation refers to COMPLEX creatures arising from matter, for example maggots in dead meat(this was the original hypothesis before we knew flys layed the eggs). abiogensis and common decent, depend on the creation of life being that of simple creatures, not complex ones. so if a complex creature is created from simple chemicles it would throw larg doubt on abiogensis and common descent.

Finally, your implication that anyone who believes in special creation has lost their brain is not only an outright, school-yard level attack, but it brings to light your true motives in this discussion: to incite discord rather than come to any kind of understanding. This is also apparent in your lack of willingness to acknowledge any point of validity in my viewpoint, even when I draw the conclusion that we cannot come to agreement in this forum.

[srobertw]

Spontaneous generation is not creation. In fact, spontaneous generation is a requirement of evolution (it had to start somewhere). And when I said we can't prove one another wrong, I was referring to proving one another wrong at present within the confines of current scientific evidence. I'm a Business Analyst, not a scientist, and I have no intention of changing my career in order to continue a debate with you. ... continued ...

its one thing to have an open mind, its another thing to have a mind so open that your brain falls out. occamz razor, you are using one extra unknowen than i

becasue macro evolution is science it CAN be proven wrong, all you have to do is demonstrate that mutations can't accumulate, or show that the fossil record is static(unchanging), or show the existance of chimeras, or show the existance of spontanious gereation(might be hard considering pastuer disproved the most common beliefs about it)

My only hope is that the video messages I post here on behalf of Roger Oakland will cause people like yourself to open your mind and think about the alternative to what you have been taught all your life. My prayer is that you will not be one who laughs off the possibility of a living creator God simply because the majority of secular scientists and popular world view directs you to do so.

[srobertw]

... The difference being that Creation Theory is based upon the supposition that the Bible is the inspired, inerrant word of God.

The bottom line is, you choose the suppositions of the secular scientific world as the foundation of your beliefs. I choose the suppositions of what I believe is the very word of God himself as the foundation of my beliefs. Can either of us prove one another wrong? No.
